Anyone interested in mathematical tiling? Check out Modulo Krinkle Tiling!

My dear tiling and pattern geeks,

 

I recently read a paper by Miki Imura: "A new non-periodic tiling based on modulo arithmetic*, (arXiv:2506.07638) and fell in love with this tiling.

 

I couldn't help myself and I've written code to draw these directly in Illustrator. If you're interested, you can download from my github repo: Modulo Krinkle Tiling for Adobe Illustrator.

 

I'd love to see what you use it for. Feel free to post images here.

- Mark

Thank you for sharing this approach, Mark. It can be a good starting point for some nice tesselations.

 

With additional efforts one may even use it as the basis for some patterns inspired by M. C. Escher.

Where did the getCenterOfActiveArtboard() function go? 🙂
